Episode 93 - Chop Socky Chooks

Cartoon Night in Canada

03-02-2024 • 1 hr 15 mins

On this week's episode, Sylvie and Chris look back at the mid-2000s flirtation with martial arts cinema and wonder aloud what exactly a legendary claymation company from jolly ol' England was doing collaborating with Decode Entertainment. It's Aardman Animation's Chop Socky Chooks (no, that's not a slur! It just Aussie for Kung-fu Chicken). A high-concept tribute to martial arts cinema from an innovator in claymation that is neither A). interested in martial arts cinema, or B). claymated. This was Flushed Away era of Aardman Animation we're dealing with, people.

Episode covered for the podcast is Episode 14 "Karaoke Zombies." Directed by Sergio Delfino. Written by J.D. Smith. Original Canadian airdate June 14, 2008.
